Hopefully today can further illuminate the reality of what’s happening.
Prior to today’s Ravens-Steelers match-up, the Ravens PA announcer asked fans to “join us as we unite together for social injustice”. The same fans Ravens Owner Steve Bisciotti cited as the reason he couldn’t sign Colin Kaepernick, loudly booed as the entire Ravens team took a knee then stood for the anthem.
Baltimore embarrassed it’s self today. As many have already suspected, the backlash from the “anthem protests” were built on shaky grounds. Respect for the flag or outrage at black, millionaire athletes demanding a change from the status quo and inequality in our country? The deodorant of Patriotism couldn’t mask the rotten core of the issue. Perhaps Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti can join Dan Gilbert and use this moment as his own wake-up call.
